The market for smart home automation products is growing to meet consumers’ desire for their homes to be smarter, more connected and more efficient. Home automation is one of the best ways to control energy usage, especially when homeowners purchase products that are designed and manufactured to work with their home comfort system.

YORK® continues to demonstrate their leadership in smart home automation with the new Hx™ Touch-screen Thermostat that communicates with both conventional and connected HVAC systems.

“It’s important to remember that ‘smart’ isn’t just the thermostat – it’s an overall connected system,” said Bentz. “A complete home comfort system goes beyond the thermostat to offer energy savings benefits.”

“As more and more homeowners look for dynamic control of their home comfort systems, they’ll always find it with YORK®,” said JL Haber, Vice President of Programming for Modern Living with kathy ireland®. “This innovative company is paving the way for smart home automation, and we are so happy to feature YORK® heating and air conditioning on our show.”
